a friend told me the background on this so we'll see if i can accurately remember it.
apparently it uses whatever default browser you have installed as it's base but instead of running that full application it simplifies it to just the registry files on your machine. it's goal is to not use much system resources while still giving you the full web experience. it's a great alternative to the horror that is IE.
i still prefer Firefox or Opera.
a different friend told me that they had issues running some javascript or ajax with it but i think that's just a localized phenomenon.
